Parties, politicians and PACs that want "less regulation" are, or represent, bullies that want to bully everybody and take everything away from everybody less powerful than them. Throughout time immemorial, this is the story of human nature and human civilization. The disappearing "middle class" of America was made possible by tediously beating back the tentacles of business greed, through organized labor movements and wildly successful socialist policies that created the prosperity bubble of the 1950s that everyone fetishizes so much, without (apparently) questioning how it was made possible, and HOW TO PROTECT IT from the wolves that are ALWAYS at the door.

Example: "Parties, politicians and PACs that want "less regulation" are, or represent, bullies. Those bullies want to bully everybody and want to take everything from the less powerful." Is that what you were trying to say? Last edited by tw; 11-12-2018 at 08:03 PM. |

Of course. This is what happens when *State Capitalists are in charge. You wouldn't have that kinda shit with Free Enterprise. # "If the government "big brother" orders you not to avoid hiring someone strictly based upon them being gay" (or black or female or disordered or disabled or...) be clever and don't hire 'em for a 'legit' reason. Really, the only reason anyone runs a'foul of EO is cuz they were too stupid to put one over on 'civil servants'. *the more masculine version of tw's beloved State Socialists. |
